With the half marathon (21km), the 10km and 5km events, the Whangamata Run Walk Festival offers something for participants of all ages and abilities. All three courses take in spectacular views of ocean beach & pristine bush-clad hills along the way. Enter individually, with friends and family, or gather a team together.

The Whangamata Lions are now the organisers of this Festival.

The pride of the Coromandel, Whangamata, boasts a wide range of recreational choices including: surfing, fishing, kayaking, tramping, mountain biking, birdwatching as well as plenty of shopping, arts and crafts, plus great cafes, restaurants and bars!

Although the emphasis is always on safety, fun and support our key sponsors, all proceeds from the event are returned to the community.

We look forward to seeing you on September 9th for this family fun run event; an occasion that always provides a challenge and entertainment for both serious and recreational runners and walkers. Get registered now!
